Solution
To construct: An isosceles triangle PQR where PQ = RQ = 6.5 cm and∠ Q =110∘. Steps of construction:
(a) Draw a line segment QR = 6.5 cm. (b) At point Q, draw an angle of 110∘ with the help of protractor, i.e., ∠ YQR=110∘ (c) Taking Q as centre, draw an arc with radius 6.5 cm, which cuts QY at point P. (d) Join PR It is the required isosceles triangle PQR.
